Hydration Pack (for a three year old?)

Every three year old needs a child size hydration pack, just for the simple fact that it is really funny to watch her with it. Tessa insists that it goes on upside down, that being the most comfortable feeling. Now if only she could figure out why when she walks the mouth piece keeps hitting her in the face. Priceless entertainment.


Oh yeah she dresses herself too, amazing what she finds comfortable.

Spring Break????

What is with this weather? One sunny half way decent day so far. Right now I am thankful for legos and markers but am sick of legos and markers! Here are a few pictures of Tessa on that one warm day.

Healthy Again!

We have survived being ground zero for infectious diseases. Most importantly our poor washing machine survived with us. I will spare the details but for three weeks we battled every imaginable, ugly illness. We are all well again.


Evelyn and Tessa reading books.


Henry snoozing.



Lost tooth number three (in one month). I was trying out a new action on this picture, I don't really like the way it turned out but I am off to bed now, maybe I will fix it a little later.

Little Lee

Little Lee was an amazingly patient little baby. I love how awake he was through most of the morning, but I love the sleepy photos of newborns.

Magic Mirror

This is our magic tubby mirror. Tessa told me to look in her magic mirror and I could see all sorts of funny looking people. I bent over the tub and after almost falling in I saw the funny people too. Hope you like the different angle.

Tessa the Dancer

Tessa loves her ballet lessons. Every Wednesday she wakes up gets dressed, eats her breakfast, then immediately changes into her ballet outfit. It is her day that she has something to do, somewhere to go and she tells us that her teacher likes her the VERY best. It is fun to watch her in the studio trying to gracefully "do the ballet."
